Novelist & Developmental Editor
I’m a novelist and developmental editor specializing in character‑driven young adult fiction with themes of mental health, identity, and social justice. My work has appeared in undergraduate literary magazines, featuring excerpts from my novels Just Let Me Go and I Love You More Than Me.
​
I offer developmental editing and beta reading for writers across all fiction genres, with particular expertise in YA and contemporary fiction. My editorial approach is shaped by my experience as an editorial and social media intern at Arthouse Literary Agency and my freelance work supporting authors on Fiverr. I hold a BA in English from Michigan State University and an LLMSW from the University of Michigan, and I bring a mental‑health‑informed perspective to both my writing and my editorial work.
